  • Masters of the Universe: Action Figures, Customization and Masculinity
    MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE: ACTION FIGURES, CUSTOMIZATION AND MASCULINITY Eric Sobel A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS December 2018 Committee: Montana Miller, Advisor Esther Clinton Jeremy Wallach ii ABSTRACT Montana Miller, Advisor This thesis places action figures, as masculinely gendered playthings and rich intertexts, into a larger context that accounts for increased nostalgia and hyperacceleration. Employing an ethnographic approach, I turn my attention to the under-discussed adults who comprise the fandom. I examine ways that individuals interact with action figures creatively, divorced from children’s play, to produce subjective experiences, negotiate the inherently consumeristic nature of their fandom, and process the gender codes and social stigma associated with classic toylines. Toy customizers, for example, act as folk artists who value authenticity, but for many, mimicking mass-produced objects is a sign of one’s skill, as seen by those working in a style inspired by Masters of the Universe figures. However, while creativity is found in delicately manipulating familiar forms, the inherent toxic masculinity of the original action figures is explored to a degree that far exceeds that of the mass-produced toys of the 1980s. Collectors similarly complicate the use of action figures, as playfully created displays act as frames where fetishization is permissible. I argue that the fetishization of action figures is a stabilizing response to ever-changing trends, yet simultaneously operates within the complex web of intertexts of which action figures are invariably tied. To highlight the action figure’s evolving role in corporate hands, I examine retro-style Reaction figures as metacultural objects that evoke Star Wars figures of the late 1970s but, unlike Star Wars toys, discourage creativity, communicating through the familiar signs of pop culture to push the figure into a mental realm where official stories are narrowly interpreted.

  • The Terminator by John Wills
    The Terminator By John Wills “The Terminator” is a cult time-travel story pitting hu- mans against machines. Authored and directed by James Cameron, the movie features Arnold Schwarzenegger, Linda Hamilton and Michael Biehn in leading roles. It launched Cameron as a major film di- rector, and, along with “Conan the Barbarian” (1982), established Schwarzenegger as a box office star. James Cameron directed his first movie “Xenogenesis” in 1978. A 12-minute long, $20,000 picture, “Xenogenesis” depicted a young man and woman trapped in a spaceship dominated by power- ful and hostile robots. It introduced what would be- come enduring Cameron themes: space exploration, machine sentience and epic scale. In the early 1980s, Cameron worked with Roger Corman on a number of film projects, assisting with special effects and the design of sets, before directing “Piranha II” (1981) as his debut feature.

    February 2005 NANATOTO of California/NevadaCalifornia/Nevada Information for the California and Nevada Motion Picture Theatre Industry THE CALIFORNIA POPCORN TAX CALENDAR By Duane Sharpe, Hutchinson and Bloodgood LLP of EVENTS & The California State Board of Equalization (the Board) recently issued an Opinion on a refund HOLIDAYS of sales tax to a local theatre chain (hereafter, the Theatre). The detail of the refund wasn’t discussed in the opinion, but the Board did focus on two specifi c issues that affected the refund. February 6 California tax law requires the assessment of sales tax on the sale of all food products when sold Super Bowl Sunday for consumption within a place that charges admission. The Board noted that in all but one loca- tion, the Theatre had changed their operations regarding admissions to its theatre buildings. Instead February 12 of requiring customers to fi rst purchase tickets to enter into the theatre building lobby in which all Lincoln’s Birthday food and drinks were sold, the Theatre opened each lobby to the general public without requiring tickets. The Theatre only required tickets for the customers to enter further into the inside movie February 14 viewing areas of the theatres. This admission policy allowed the Theatre not to charge sales tax on Valentine’s Day “popcorn sales.” California tax law requires the assessment of sales tax on the sale of “hot prepared food products.” The issue before the Board was whether the popcorn sold by the Theatre was a hot February 21 prepared food product.

By resorting to “the fictional worlds” theory (Dolezel, 1998), the relationship between the fictional and the real is examined so as to show how these films refract political issues in various symbolic ways, with special reference to the ideological construct of “global threat”. Keywords: film, science fiction, narrative, allegory, otherness, fictional worlds. RESUMEN : en este artículo se aborda el género de la ciencia ficción en el cine mediante el análisis de las películas de la serie Alien y Predator y su combinación. Utilizando la teoría de “los mundos ficcionales” (Dolezel, 1999), se examina la relación entre los planos ficcional y real para mostrar cómo estas películas reflejan cuestiones políticas de diversas formas simbólicas, con especial referencia a la construccción ideológica de la “amenaza global”. Palabras clave: film, ciencia ficción, narrativa, alegoría, alteridad, mundos fic- cionales In 2004 20th Century Fox released Alien vs. Predator, directed by Paul Anderson and starring Sanaa Latham, Lance Henriksen, Raoul Bova and Ewen Bremmer. The film combined and continued two highly successful film series: those of the 1979 Alien and its three successors Aliens (1986), Alien 3 (1992) and Alien Resurrection (1997), and of the two Predator movies, from 1987 and 1990 respectively.

When the three most dangerous species in the galaxy clash, who will come out the winner? Now that you’re here, it’s time to choose a side. You’ve got +1000CP to make your choice. Starting Time & Location Owing to a timeline and canon that’s a bit all over the place, you may freely choose the time and location of your insertion: the following are suggestions.

Aside from the rynth ranches, it sports only a small Weyland-Yutani outpost. 3.

    KWARTALNIK NEOFILOLOGICZNY, LXV, 2/2018 R FIONA HAYWARD (INDEPENDENT ACADEMIC) BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER. THE MAIDEN IS DEATH: DEATH IS HER GIFT1 ABSTRACT Buffy The Vampire Slayer was a television series broadcast from 1997 to 2003. The narrative follows the heroine, Buffy Summers, ostensibly a normal teen, however she is also the latest in a long line of Slayers. Death is a gift of the Slayer. The three facets of this gift point to the conclusion that Buffy, the Maiden, is Death. KEYWORDS: Buffy, vampire slayer, death, maiden, quest, gift STRESZCZENIE Buffy The Vampire Slayer jest serialem telewizyjnym, który był wyświetlany w latach 1997–2003. Fabuła śledzi losy bohaterki, Buffy Summers, pozornie przeciętnej nastolatki, która jednakże jest najmłodszym przedstawicielem rodu Slayers – Pogromców. Śmierć jest ich “darem”. Wiele aspektów tego “daru” prowadzi do podsumowania, że Buffy – dziewica – jest Śmiercią. SŁOWA KLUCZOWE: Buffy, pogromczyni wampirów, śmierć, dziewica, misja, dar INTRODUCTION ‘Death is what I live and breathe’. (Potential. S7E12) It is at the live, beating heart of who Buffy Summers is. Buffy Summers, a lightweight, sunny, Valley Girl name but Buffy is The Slayer, the heart of darkness. Take away the weapons, take away her friends, take away hope, strip back all the wit and banter, and what is left is the very image of Death, because that is what The Slayer is. Buffy challenges many filmic conventions – in horror the pretty blonde is the victim of the vampires; Buffy subverts that with deliberate intent. Joss Whedon is often quoted as saying he wanted to explore what it would be like for the vampire 1 I would like to thank and acknowledge the encouragement of Fiona Papps, the editorial assistance of Meg Hayward and Joanna Wlochal for the Polish translation.

Set immediately after the events of the previous film, the Predalien hybrid aboard the Predator scout ship, having just separated from the mothership shown in the previous film, has grown to full adult size and sets about killing the Predators aboard the ship, causing it to crash in the small town of Gunnison, Colorado.

Marines carry a wide arsenal including pulse rifles , flamethrowers, and auto-tracking smartguns. Archived from the original on December 19, Production began in late at Barrandov Studios in Prague, Czech Republic , where most of the filming took place. After the release of Alien 3 , Sigourney Weaver commented on her apparent exit from the franchise, joking that "they'd probably find a way to resurrect Ripley using the DNA in her fingernails". Soon, the team realize that only one species can win. No minimum to No maximum. However, the United States Marine Corps are humanity's last line of defense, and as such they are armed to the teeth with the very latest in high explosive and automatic weaponry.
